complete solution 2025/2026
scattered, transmitted, absorbed - correct answer ✔Name three types of interaction of light with
matter.
reflectance - correct answer ✔what is defined as the ratio of reflected light to the total light falling on a
surface?
specular - correct answer ✔which type of reflection produces emages like you would see in a mirror?
true - correct answer ✔T/F in geometric optics, light is treated as though it were made up of many
slender rays
false - correct answer ✔T/F the first law of reflection states that the reflected ray, incident ray, and
normal all lie in the same plane.
tangent - correct answer ✔to find the angle of reflection of light reflecting off a curved surface, we
draw a normal perpendicular to a _____ drawn to the curve at the point where the light is reflected.
diffuse - correct answer ✔the unevenness of a surface is the primary cause of _____ reflection.
first - correct answer ✔the _____ law of reflection states that the angle of incidence is equal to the
angle of reflection.
